This feels like confusion with the "Kingsmen" movies waiting to happen. I think keeping the property in the name of the character is the smarter play.

I think the name is unique enough. (Also, the name of the movies is "Kingsman)

Perhaps it's unique enough, but it's also about consistency with other tags on e6.

For example, wicke_(pokemon), twilight_sparkle_(mlp), legoshi_(beastars) to name a few.

I hate to just spout "this is how it's done", but it is. I think lewis_the_skeleton should get aliased to lewis_(mystery_skulls), and leave the rest where they are.

when a character's full name is known that's generally the name that's went with. one of the only exceptions to this that I'm aware of being hollyhock_(bojack_horseman) being perfered over hollyhock_manheim-mannheim-guerrero-robinson-zilberschlag-hsung-fonzarelli-mcquack (for obvious reasons). usually the *_(<origin>) suffix is only used when a character's full name is unknown.

Went to go check this, and you're actually right. amy_rose, sally_acorn, nick_wilde, fox_mccloud.

There's some inconsistency with it, twilight_sparkle_(mlp), sunset_shimmer_(mlp). Those are their full names, but still have MLP tagged. Maybe that's just MLP being it's own beast.
Other times, if their "full name" consists of only one name, they usually get their series tagged anyway. (papyrus_(undertale), chica_(fnaf), simba_(the_lion_king), only exception to this I found was mario, but c'mon. He's fuckin mario.

With all this info, I'm changing to a +1. We have two names, and previous tags show that full names do not use series tag afterwards, and the name is unique enough.
